man, the ultra rich really do live in an entirely different universe than the rest of us
Reminder that, in constant dollars, GDP per capita has tripled since 1960. That's right, we create three times the value that her generation did, we get less of it, and she has the nerve to say "Well if you only work 4 hours a day" when her job is having coffee with her lazy, rich entitled friends once a week. First up against the fucking wall.
Whoopsie Goldberg
Apparently she's on a roll:
In a slip-up on "The View" Wednesday, Whoopi Goldberg suggested Jill Biden, who has a doctorate in education, be appointed surgeon general if her husband wins the 2020 presidential election, calling her a "hell of a doctor."
I always knew she was dumb, but I didn't know she was that dumb.
Haven't seen her acting in like a decade. She probably doesn't have time with how hard she works now.
Somewhere along the line, Whoopi became a Hillary Clinton clone.
Pretty much around when she joined the View, maybe a bit before
It's a simple bargain: you just say whatever Disney wants you to say, and they'll just keep shoveling money in your direction.
Robin Williams is ashamed of her.
‘the view’ is toxic. If there was an equivalent of toxic masculinity for women, it would be that show. I mean it had barbara Walters as an opinion in where she attacked Corey Feldman for trying to speak out on sexual harassment in the film industry. that should be all it needs to assess it as a garbage program. I cannot believe it kept running after that and found more garbage opinions to taint the media. I immediately lose all respect of any celebrity that gets cast on the view. Although I suppose I should be grateful that it has exposed so many piles of shit in the industry. A sandbox of regret filled with cat turds.
